Like Mother’s Day, Father’s Day is a bit of a Hallmark holiday… but we’re willing to overlook that, because we think dads and father figures deserve a hearty salute for everything that they do for us. And with Father’s Day less than a week away, what better way to do it than rounding up some of our favorite celeb dads? From Jon Stewart to Hugh Jackman and from Ryan Phillippe to Chris Rock, we think these dads rule.

Did we forget your favorite celeb dad? Tell us about him in the comments!

Happy Father’s Day, Bettys!

1. Jon Stewart

What’s not to love about Jon Stewart? He’s smart. He’s funny. He’s successful. He proposed to his wife with a crossword puzzle specially created by Will Shortz. And he’s got two adorable kids, seven-year-old Nathan and six-year-old Maggie, on whom he very clearly dotes. Awesome? Awesome.

2. David Beckham

Who doesn’t melt every single time they see a picture of David Beckham playing football/soccer/whichever you prefer with Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz or cuddling with little Harper Seven (even when she sticks her tongue out)?

There are many reasons to love Matt Damon, pictured above with his wife Luciana; but our absolute favorite one is this: He learned the names of all of the Disney Princesses—just for his daughters Isabella, Gia, Stella, and Alexia (Luciana’s daughter from her first marriage). Awwww!
